Seeing Zhang Baoer's proud smiling face turning towards him, the messenger trembled suddenly and nodded quickly:
"The Lord of the City manages the army well! The military discipline is strict, and the orders and prohibitions are intimidating... No, no, I admire you in admiration! High! Really high!"
Hearing this, Zhang Baoer nodded slightly, sighing secretly that this old guy finally had a decent flattery.
Now that time was of the essence, he had no intention of continuing to listen to his obedient words. After the ten scouts had left for five or six miles, he waved his hand and ordered the march to continue.
Time passed slowly, and the sky had darkened before he knew it. Although Zhang Baoer had never been in the army, he also knew that forced marching was not advisable. Encountering an enemy with an exhausted army was no different than striking an egg against a stone, so he ignored the messenger's pleading and
Orders were given to set up camp and bury pots to make rice.
The whole night was uneventful. When the second platoon on guard was changing the guard for the second time, the east had turned fishy white, and everyone broke camp and went on the road.
Time flies, and on the morning of the third day, more than a hundred riders finally set foot on the territory of Jinxia Kingdom. Looking at the collapsed border town in front of them, Zhang Baoer couldn't help but sigh:
"Prosperity brings suffering to the people! Death brings suffering to the people..."
At the same time, he suddenly envied the 'cloud-piercing beast' that Leng Xiaoxi was riding at that time. If he had one, he wouldn't have to travel so hard through mountains and rivers, and the distance of a thousand miles would only take less than half a day.
Seeing that there was no garrison in the broken city, Zhang Baoer didn't feel strange, because there was really no need to guard it, the coalition forces were overwhelming, and the Jinxia people had no patriotism.
"Keep going!"
He took out the map and explored it for a long time. After combining the information from the scouts, he determined a direction and then rode off with his men.
Time continued to pass, and on the third day after entering the Jinxia Kingdom, they came to a valley with few trees around.
Just when he was about to arrive at the center of the valley, Zhang Baoer suddenly frowned and asked everyone to stop:
"stop!"
"grown ups?!"
The third company commander quickly came up and asked.
Zhang Baoer's face was a little solemn, and he said to the third company commander in a low voice:
"I haven't seen anyone in the past three days, not even a trace of the refugees...that's right!"
Halfway through, he suddenly remembered something, his eyes sharpened, and he asked eagerly:
"It's already past the time for changing the guard. Why...the second platoon and the third shift haven't come back yet?! Huh?!"
At this moment, a gust of breeze blew in his face. Zhang Baoer was stunned and was about to shout, but he heard a loud noise behind him.
Bang bang bang...
"Where are you going?!"
After hearing the sound, they saw the messenger and the people he was taking quickly leaving on war roosters, while a squad leader shouted at them.
"not good!"
Zhang Baoer's pupils shrank suddenly, he quickly turned his horse's head and shouted loudly:
"Quickly retreat!"
"yes……"
The crowd's response dragged on for a long time, and their pupils suddenly began to zoom in and out, with a look of panic on their faces.
Because...it's too late!
"Kill!"
In the distance, killing sounds suddenly sounded from all directions, and they were approaching quickly. The surrounding earth and rocks shook, and many earth and rocks rolled down the slopes with few vegetation.
"It's over!"
By this time, if Zhang Baoer doesn't understand that he is a fool, he will be a pure fool - he has been deceived! They are already surrounded!
From the wind just now, he smelled a faint smell of blood. At that time, he knew that something was wrong, but... it was too late...
He stared at the backs of the messenger and others with splitting eyes. Although he could catch up with and kill them in three to five breaths at the pace of a unicorn, he did not chase them, but pointed at them.
Looking at the top of the mountain on the right, he shouted:
"Come with me! Drive!"
This place is at the bottom of a valley. He has never led an army but he also knows the principle of "being from a high position is overwhelming". From the shouts of killing from all sides, he already knows that there are tens of thousands of people coming. If he wants to break through, he cannot break through blindly. Now he can only climb up to see clearly.
After experiencing the situation, make further calculations.
Or because they were worried that he would notice them if they got too close, they didn't get too close, so they got their wish and climbed to the top of the mountain first.
After climbing to the top and looking into the distance, Zhang Baoer's heart sank to the bottom after seeing the surrounding situation clearly, and his eyes were as scarlet as if they were about to burst - as he thought, those people really came to ambush him, and... someone was coming.
Not just tens of thousands, but there are more in the distance, densely packed in all directions...the total number should be no less than one hundred thousand!
"Chief?!"
Where had the third company commander seen such a formation? His mind was confused for a moment and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to turn his attention to Zhang Baoer.
Zhang Baoer's face was as heavy as water, and he didn't know what to do, because no matter how he broke through, the possibility of success was...
"Eh..."
He looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, then immediately forced himself to calm down and said:
"Defend according to danger, form a defensive formation, and check the situation first!"
The third company commander knew that he had to do this now, and after sighing, he ordered everyone to go to a higher position not far from the side to defend.
The sun is scorching in the sky, the sky is clear and cloudless, the armor is shining, the gold and gold are shining, thirty to forty thousand chicken knights are in front, seventy to eighty thousand foot soldiers are behind, and more than one hundred thousand people, like countless ferocious giant crocodiles, are surrounding here.
Perhaps because Zhang Baoer and others did not break out of the encirclement, they were not in a hurry and did not attack them immediately. Instead, they slowly closed the encirclement.
Hua Hua Hua...
The sound of footsteps and the friction of metal armor became louder and louder as the person approached, making people tremble and send chills down their backs.
Zhang Baoer was so regretful that his intestines were almost turning green. He secretly hated himself for being so arrogant and arrogant about his own strength. He underestimated the people in this world, which led to today... being hunted by others!
"Eh!"
He was completely certain that this was a huge killing spree, prepared just for him!
The previous scenes suddenly flashed across his eyes quickly, and he quickly linked them together:
"When a chaotic war breaks out, a messenger comes, lures you with treasures, leaves the chaotic city, flatters you, clears the country and ambush... This is to invite you to enter the urn!!!"
He really wanted to give himself a slap in the face. If it weren't for his greed, no one would have fallen into this killing situation. If he was in Chaos City and saw that the situation was not going well, he could escape into the Death Mountain and escape... And here
…
The soldiers in the chaotic city beside them all looked frightened, and the weapons in their hands were either drooping or trembling.
In response to this, Zhang Baoer only sighed secretly and did not speak angrily - even if his words could help them gain blessings and be able to fight one against a hundred, but... so what? What's the use?!
It's too late, it's too late for everything...
But... after a while, his eyes calmed down, his face returned to calm, and a long sword was already in his hand - no one knew what he was thinking.
They watched hundreds of thousands of soldiers approaching slowly. Unknowingly, their bodies were wet with cold sweat. They were still unaware, and they were still looking at the enemies with their eyes...
Wow!
After an unknown amount of time, the last sound of marching was heard, and the enemy troops were stationed in a circular arc more than thirty feet away.
Behind Zhang Baoer and others, there were people stopping on the hilltop at the other end of the valley, and on the left and right, there were people stopping at the entrance of the valley... After a quick scan, he found that he seemed to have fallen into a huge iron tunnel.
"call……"
Zhang Baoer breathed a long sigh of relief and tried hard to stop his pupils from trembling and stabilize them so that he could immediately understand the situation directly in front of him.
Wow!
The enemy troops in the direction he was looking suddenly separated into a lane, and a dozen men riding saber-toothed tigers slowly passed through it and rushed forward.
Looking at the smiles on their faces, Zhang Baoer was neither angry nor resentful. His face was very calm, and he just rode quietly on the one-horned horse, letting his eyes pass through the dense silver light and fall on the dozen or so people.
The dozen or so people were headed by three old men, two men and one woman. The man on the far left was known to Zhang Baoer. He was the mountain old man who had reached an agreement with him. The last time he plotted against Tang Tiantian, he was criticized by the people in the city.
The young man who was beaten was also there, walking at the end of the group, casting a vicious and ecstatic look at Zhang Baoer.
Three groups of people also walked out from the top of the mountain on the left and right sides and the opposite side behind. Zhang Baoer only glanced around briefly and turned his head back, continuing to focus on Shan Lao and his group; because, his intuition told him: This is
Everything is the mastermind of Wanbao Pavilion!
Bang bang bang...
Sure enough, after a long circle, the messenger and others appeared in his eyes again. They were riding war chickens towards Shan Lao and others with ecstatic expressions on their faces.
When Shan Lao and others stopped in front of the formation, the messenger and others just arrived. They laid chickens one after another and saluted Shan Lao and others.
"Greetings to the three pavilion masters!"
"Haha, thank you for your hard work!"
"good!"
"Um!"
The three people riding the saber-toothed tiger side by side nodded their heads and cast admiring glances at him. The messenger and others were overjoyed, but they did not dare to hesitate and immediately bowed and retreated behind them.
Before leaving, they did not forget to raise their heads proudly and cast a mocking look at Zhang Baoer, as if to say: Keep on being domineering! Idiot!
"What an idiot..."
Zhang Baoer felt bitter in his heart. He was a time traveler and a person who had been to the God Realm, but he was deceived by such a small character... What is he not a fool?!
In fact, his idea was not entirely correct. It was not only the messenger who deceived him, but also himself! He is such a smart person. If he hadn't tried every means to convince himself when he was thinking and hesitating, how could he have been deceived?
Woolen cloth?!
Although there were violent ups and downs in his heart, he immediately calmed down and did not think too much, because the situation was critical now and he could no longer care about it. He had to be prepared!
"hehe……"
At this moment, Shan Lao opposite suddenly smiled. He casually cupped his hands towards Zhang Baoer and said:
"Lord Demon King...it's been a long time!"
He dragged out the words "Master Demon King" for a long time, and before he could finish his words, there was already an uproar around him.
"this……"
Even the third company commander and others were shaken physically and mentally. They couldn't help but look back at Zhang Baoer and cast inquiring glances.
There was no strange color on Zhang Baoer's face. He ignored the third company commander and others, and still faced Shan Lao with a calm face.
"I'm a little curious...how did you know?"
Wow~
The sensation this time was even greater. Not only the third company commander and others, but also the enemy troops in the front were all horrified and confused. As the news of Zhang Baoer's acquiescence spread, those further away also started to make noises.
The sounds of surprise and uncertainty intertwined together, like flash floods suddenly coming from all directions - from this point of view, everyone did not know the specific situation, and was just here following orders.
Zhang Baoer had no intention of ridiculing such lax military discipline, and kept his eyes on Shan Lao.
Regarding Zhang Baoer's question, Shan Lao did not refuse to answer, or did he think that he would have no chance of escaping today, right?
Therefore, he looked up to the sky and laughed, and after the laughter suppressed the people's commotion, he said a series of "inspiring" words:
"Hahaha... how can a beast like you understand the abilities of my Wanbao Pavilion?! Haha, a beast is a beast, even one of my accountants in Wanbao Pavilion can deceive you... Haha! You are here
When you look at Minghao's space ring, you must be very surprised why he doesn't have the Pavilion Master Token, right?"
As his words spread, the 'enemy soldiers' all calmed down, and the fear in their eyes disappeared, replaced by deep excitement - a demon king will die because of him, luck
If it is good, it is hard to say that it will also gain a military merit!
Regarding Shan Lao's words, Zhang Baoer nodded and did not deny it. Shan Lao seemed not surprised at all and continued to smile:
"All the Pavilion Master's tokens have the ability to transmit sound! The reason why Minghao's Nascent Soul fled to the direction of Wanbao Pavilion is because his token was there! As for... why didn't he take the Pavilion Master's token with him?
...I won’t tell you anymore, haha!”
Having said this, Mr. Shan's words did not end, because he clapped his hands and then said:
"Okay! In return for drinking your cup of tea, I will let you know..."
At this point, his voice suddenly became as loud as his raised chin:
"Who arranged all this! Hahahahaha! My good disciple, come out and meet your acquaintances!"
Wow!
When his voice fell, the crowd on the right suddenly parted, and a beautiful and slim woman walked out.
Seeing that person, Zhang Baoer's pupils shrank suddenly and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the hilt of his sword! Because that person was indeed an acquaintance!
The visitor was none other than the eldest lady of the Le family - Le Yurou.
Wearing a golden dress, she walked through thousands of "lay people" in armor like a fairy descending to earth, came to Shan Lao, bowed, called "Master", and then looked at Zhang Baoer with her big beautiful eyes.
